This plea for corrections just in from the PR agency who furnished the press info supporting our original post:

"The cars have done at least 150,000 miles ..." (They have actually done a maximum 65-75,000 and then every one is FULLY refurbished)
"They run on LPG ..." (it's unleaded and ethanol/biofuel)
"They have 2008 cars ..." (most are 2009 with 2010 to come)
"Constant yellow rooflights" (they are red, white and amber)
"The word sheriff cannot be used in Scotland" ( yes, it can)

Well done chaps, and welcome to PH - the home of er, shoddy journalism! smile
Update. We've succumbed to agency pleading, and changed the original homepage post to reflect the new info above. Apparently the vendors were worried about wrong info coming up at the top of google searches, which is understandable.

The downside is that this thread no longer makes as much sense as it might have, so if you feel that we've wasted your time... Well, that's what we're here for! smile
